My mother recently passed away and not to long after I got a pet tortoise. She is 3.5" x 4" in size. She's quiet, adorable and completely harmless. She has been a huge emotional support for me in dealing with this loss. I read that small animals can be brought on board as long as they're in a tsa approved carrier. Is it possible to bring her?
My condolences for your mother. As mentioned, domestic dogs and cats are permitted aboard Southwest per Southwest policy:
We welcome small vaccinated domestic cats and dogs in an appropriate pet carrier in the cabin on domestic flights. Carriers must be stowed under your seat. For Customers traveling to Puerto Rico, specific requirements may apply. We do not accept pets on flights to or from Hawaii.
